From the Keeper’s Desk – April 10

Greetings!

Today, the forms were set for the barn and summer kitchen foundation walls. Unless you actually see it happening you would not have any idea how much work goes into getting it done. It is a very involved process and these guys make it look easy. Friday noon the cement truck is scheduled to arrive.
